Dude is gonna be a career back up player. He will get a shot to start somewhere in the next 2 years and prove to be nothing but that.

Imo that is exactly what Andy Dalton would have been. If he was handed everything his first few years by having a top 10 defense his first 3 years. A top 5 running game 2014. Good OL and Wrs. The only reason why Dalton is looked at like a starting qb is because being put in a great situation with things around him to start his career. If his career was like the last 2 years with a bad line and not as much talent around him. He would be looked at as nothing more than a plug in starter or backup.

Which McCarron like Dalton would do well with a lot around him. McCarron showed that by looking very much like Dalton in the few games he played. Except he was able to do that with no experience. While besides 2015 Dalton has looked like that with experience.

For McCarron he will have to be in a situation with a lot around him like Dalton had or what Keenum had This year. To show what he can do. If not you are correct he will be a backup. Much like Dalton would have been if he landed somewhere else to start his career.

Arizona is said to be looking at Mike Glennon once the Bears cut him loose.

Washington has Alex Smith.

Buffalo is in position to draft a new QB.

Miami - possible if Tannehill isn't healthy.

Dallas - zero chance he'd compete with Dak.

Giants are preparing to draft a QB and they have Davis Webb behind Eli already.

Jets are focused on Teddy Bridgewater

Philly has Carson Wentz. Not happening.

And Philly still has Nick Foles, who I'm guessing they'll hold on to since Wentz may not be ready when camp starts. Not to mention the Eagles are very high on their 3rd stringer Nate Sudfeld. They have arguably the best QB situation in the league....bringing AJ in doesn't change that.

Miami and Arizona are the only places I could see him land as a starter.
